to investigate a thousand unexpected deaths. | :00:08. | :00:09. | |

No parent should ever have to go through this, ever. | :00:12. | :00:27. | |
It is totally and utterly unacceptable that according to the | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
leaked report, only 1% of the unexpected deaths of patients with | :00:33. | :00:34. | |
learning disabilities were investigated. | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
We'll hear how the government plans to improve the situation. | :00:38. | :00:39. | |

Hello and welcome to the BBC News at Six. | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
The Health Secretary says he's profoundly shocked by revelations | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
that the NHS Southern Health Trust failed to investigate the unexpected | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
deaths of more than 1,000 vulnerable patients. | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
He said the failures at the Trust - first revealed by the BBC yesterday | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
- were "totally and utterly unacceptable". | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
The organisation is one of the largest mental health trusts | :02:02. | :02:03. | |
- covering five counties in southern England. | :02:04. | :02:06. | |
Here's our social affairs correspondent, Michael Buchanan. | :02:07. | :02:14. | |
No parent should ever have to go through this, ever, ever. | :02:15. | :02:24. | |
Time does not always heal. For Mandy Parks, the loss of her daughter | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
three years ago remains raw, crushing. | :02:28. | :02:38. | |
Hannah, says Mandy, was quite simply wonderful. But psychiatric problems | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
developed, overwhelming the 20-year-old who killed herself. | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
Southern Health admitted her death was preventable and apologise to the | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
family. They apologised but an apology is not enough. When | :02:54. | :03:00. | |
someone's life has been taken away from them, saying sorry does not cut | :03:01. | :03:07. | |
it. In the Commons today, the Health Secretary was similarly unimpressed | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
with the trust. Mr Speaker, the whole House will be profoundly | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
shocked by this morning's allegations, of the failure to | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
investigate over 1000 unexpected deaths by Southern Health foundation | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
NHS trust. He said the whole of the NHS had to change. It is totally and | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
unacceptable that according to the leaked report, only 1% of deaths of | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
patients with learning disabilities were investigated. Jeremy Hunt was | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
brought to the Commons after we revealed yesterday that Southern | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
Health had failed to investigate the sudden deaths of nearly 1200 people. | :03:45. | :03:51. | |
A leaked report said failure in leadership at the trust had led to | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
failings. The trust said it should better have investigated cases but | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
disputed the report and said it had made substantial improvements. One | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
expert said the problems were not limited to one trust. Our findings | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
were just the tip of the iceberg, but until there is a proper ongoing | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
mortality review, we will not understand the scale of the problem. | :04:16. | :04:21. | |
At Southern Health's main office today, no sign of the beleaguered | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
Chief Executive facing mounting calls to resign. Richard West is | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
another bereaved parent. He did not need yesterday's report to learn of | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
Southern Health's problems. He had investigated them himself, found | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
problems and told investigators. They were not interested. | :04:41. | :04:57. | |
I'm sorry, we have got a problem with that report. Let's go to | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
Michael Buchanan now in Southampton. What have Southern Health been | :05:04. | :05:13. | |
saying today? There has been a huge contrast today in what we heard in | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
the House of Commons, the condemnation from other MPs, the | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
promise that action would be taken and what has happened here at | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
Southern Health and indeed at NHS England, both of whom seem to have | :05:26. | :05:32. | |
taken a vow of a murder, not saying Ferrari much at all today. That is | :05:33. | :05:37. | |
despite these are the two organisations who will be | :05:38. | :05:42. | |
investigated -- they have taken a vow of silence, not saying very much | :05:43. | :05:50. | |
at all today. There will be more calls for a change of leadership at | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
Southern Health. Thank you. Four men have been found guilty | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
for their part in a phone scam that defrauded pensioners | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
in the south of England. The victims who were | :06:01. | :06:01. | |
in their seventies, eighties and nineties lost | :06:02. | :06:03. | |
a million pounds all told. Three men were convicted of | :06:04. | :06:13. | |
conspiring to commit fraud. Our home affairs correspondent | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
June Kelly reports. This massive fraud was focused | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
on the places where people retire. The gang targeted | :06:23. | :06:24. | |
pensioners in counties like Dorset, Devon and Cornwall, | :06:25. | :06:26. | |
and the scam was always the same. Pretending to be police officers, | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
the criminals would phone elderly people and trick them into moving | :06:30. | :06:31. | |
or withdrawing thousands of pounds 73-year-old Patricia Burnham | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
handed over ?135,000, and then came the reality | :06:36. | :06:44. | |
that she had been duped. I said to my husband, | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
"oh my God, what have I done?" I just felt devastated, | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
stupid, embarrassed. But across Middle England, | :06:51. | :06:57. | |
the elderly were taken in. As the gang trawled for victims, | :06:58. | :07:06. | |
they called over 3700 numbers. At least 140 pensioners | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
handed over money. The fraudsters netted over ?1 | :07:13. | :07:20. | |
million, but police say only ?18,000 Scotland Yard launched the fraud | :07:21. | :07:22. | |
enquiry after counterterrorism detectives in a separate | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
investigation found suspicious payments into the account of an | :07:27. | :07:28. | |
individual We are concerned about bank | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
accounts linked to Syria. We are concerned | :07:32. | :07:37. | |
about money which went into one particular account | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
of an individual who we know has Patricia Burnham's husband died | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
shortly after the couple learned I just feel very sad that he had | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
this worry and concern at a time when he was very frail, | :07:50. | :07:58. | |
and really couldn't cope. Today at the Old Bailey four men | :07:59. | :08:05. | |
were convicted of being involved The gang leader and three others had | :08:06. | :08:07. | |
already pleaded guilty It is revealed that | :08:08. | :08:14. | |
one of the convicted fraudsters Mohamed Dahir, | :08:15. | :08:21. | |
was supported by the Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn when he applied | :08:22. | :08:23. | |
for and was given bail Heavy rain overnight has caused more | :08:24. | :08:25. | |
flooding in Cumbria. The village of Glenridding | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
found itself under water Firefighters and the army | :08:33. | :08:34. | |
were called in to help. Our correspondent | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
Judith Moritz is there. Yes, tonight Glenridding Beck is | :08:40. | :08:52. | |
back where it should be. Yesterday evening it was flowing right over | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
the bridge where I am standing, instead of underneath it. With more | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
rain falling now and more to come, today they have battled all day to | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
reduce the risk of even more flooding here. | :09:04. | :09:06. | |
This was Glenridding last night, underwater for the second time | :09:07. | :09:08. | |
It had only just been cleared up when the river came right | :09:09. | :09:16. | |
This morning, the shop was still under water. | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
The Brown family have owned it for 30 years. | :09:22. | :09:25. | |
Although this is now their fourth flood, it doesn't get any easier. | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
So much of the mountainside collapsed in the weekend floods, | :09:30. | :09:48. | |
the river here was blocked when the rain | :09:49. | :09:50. | |
Local volunteers responded, working through the night | :09:51. | :09:58. | |
I know everyone around here, so I just needed to do my bit | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
When you see the massive team effort from everybody, | :10:04. | :10:06. | |
you have got to try and do your bit, haven't you? | :10:07. | :10:09. | |
The Environment Agency are on-site working | :10:10. | :10:11. | |
Are they doing the job, these local people, | :10:12. | :10:16. | |
volunteering, that should have been done by other organisations | :10:17. | :10:18. | |
We will work with them and we will support them | :10:19. | :10:35. | |
to do what we can to make things right again. | :10:36. | :10:37. | |
Those who live here no flooding is a risk, but they say they have | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
never seen it this bad, and to be hit | :10:41. | :10:42. | |
David Cameron has been in Poland to discuss his plans to change | :10:43. | :10:53. | |
benefit rules for migrants coming to work in the UK. | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
After the talks the Polish Prime Minister said she didn't "see eye | :10:58. | :11:00. | |
to eye" with Mr Cameron over the proposals. | :11:01. | :11:03. | |
Limiting in-work benefits is a main feature of the government's demands | :11:04. | :11:05. | |
In Poland's capital city, signs the British lifestyle holds appeal. Many | :11:06. | :11:23. | |
from here live and work in the UK, which is why Poland matters when it | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
comes to migration. For some, welfare is not important. If I were | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
to move to England, I would not expect to get any benefits for me. I | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
would just expect to find a decent job, to work there as hard as I can, | :11:41. | :11:47. | |
and to get my salary. But David Cameron thinks stopping migrants | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
claiming in work benefits like tax credits will reduce immigration. It | :11:53. | :11:56. | |
is a key change he wants to make to the EU before a referendum, but his | :11:57. | :12:03. | |
Polish counterpart needs convincing. TRANSLATION: Of course there are | :12:04. | :12:05. | |
discussions and issues where we do not see eye to eye today. Among | :12:06. | :12:14. | |
those issueds welfare and benefits. Poland will work on solutions and | :12:15. | :12:16. | |
does back the Prime Minister's other proposed reforms. But he he needs | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
backing from 26 other EU leaders as well. There is no agreement on | :12:23. | :12:28. | |
welfare. Is it time to compromise on this proposed ban? There is | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
engagement, a lot of common ground and agreement on the proposals we | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
have made. Some of them are difficult and they need further | :12:37. | :12:39. | |
work. Everyone is committed to doing that further work and reaching | :12:40. | :12:44. | |
agreement. The reason why this is such a sticking point is the Polish | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
government and other EU leaders think if their citizens get less | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
than in work benefits than other people that amounts to | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
discrimination. Some agree but others think it will not make any | :12:58. | :13:02. | |
difference. I have lived in England for a year and I cannot imagine | :13:03. | :13:06. | |
being paid less for doing the same job. I don't think it. People going | :13:07. | :13:12. | |
there. Maybe they won't stay for a longer time. While in Warsaw, the | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
Prime Minister marked past joint battles. He knows in Poland he has a | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
political ally who wants Poland in the EU. But resolving this conflict | :13:23. | :13:30. | |
on welfare changes is likely to require a compromise. | :13:31. | :13:32. | |
It may be winter - but thousands of migrants | :13:33. | :13:34. | |
and refugees are still trying to cross the sea to get to Europe. | :13:35. | :13:37. | |
And as the flow of people continues, so do the tragedies. | :13:38. | :13:40. | |
This week a mother and her seven children - | :13:41. | :13:43. | |
the youngest just weeks old - drowned while trying to cross | :13:44. | :13:46. | |
Our Turkey correspondent Mark Lowen has been speaking to him. | :13:47. | :13:54. | |
Somewhere in the vastness of the Aegean he lost them. | :13:55. | :13:58. | |
Ali Alsaho scours the spot where he and his family | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
took their boat bound for Europe, a new life. | :14:03. | :14:07. | |
It flooded and Ali's wife and his seven children drowned. | :14:08. | :14:14. | |
The smugglers told them they wouldn't need life jackets, | :14:15. | :14:23. | |
How to comprehend such a tragedy - it is too much to bear. | :14:24. | :14:32. | |
They had fled Islamic State hoping for sanctuary, | :14:33. | :14:36. | |
believing the worst horrors were behind them. | :14:37. | :14:44. | |
TRANSLATION: I had the most affectionate wife. | :14:45. | :14:46. | |
They said we would reach Greece within 15 minutes. | :14:47. | :14:54. | |
I say to others wanting to come, don't risk your life at sea. | :14:55. | :14:58. | |
Stay in Syria, however difficult it is. | :14:59. | :15:04. | |
Shortly after Ali and his family set off from here the waves rose up | :15:05. | :15:07. | |
Over 3500 people have died this year trying to make the trip to Europe. | :15:08. | :15:14. | |
The EU is giving Turkey money and resources to patrol | :15:15. | :15:17. | |
But still, even in winter, the desperate ones are making | :15:18. | :15:23. | |
On a nearby beach, Afghans and Iranians carry whatever | :15:24. | :15:32. | |
and whoever they can, like pilgrims on an endless path. | :15:33. | :15:38. | |
I escaped the Taliban and IS, he says. | :15:39. | :15:41. | |
There is always a risk, however you migrate from your country | :15:42. | :15:43. | |
They find shelter in a derelict village, waiting for | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
News has spread here of the Syrians who drowned | :15:50. | :15:55. | |
I was born in the war, I grew up in the war. | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
Have you heard about the children who died near here | :16:01. | :16:02. | |
It doesn't change your desire to take the boat? | :16:03. | :16:08. | |
For Ali, who tried the journey, his dreams of Europe now | :16:09. | :16:14. | |
But how many more will follow in his wake? | :16:15. | :16:29. | |
The Health Secretary condemns the NHS Trust that failed | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
to investigate a thousand unexpected deaths. | :16:35. | :16:35. | |
As the deadline approaches on talks over climate change, | :16:36. | :16:39. | |
we'll be asking if your house could be part of the problem. | :16:40. | :16:46. | |
And coming up on Reporting Scotland at 6.30pm, we catch up with Celtic, | :16:47. | :16:49. | |
as their last Europa League match gets under way in Turkey. | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
And the rather messy north-east tradition of "blackening" a bride | :16:54. | :16:55. | |
The latest figures show that the NHS is failing to meet a number of key | :16:56. | :17:11. | |
targets, including ambulance response times and cancer treatment. | :17:12. | :17:15. | |
Another area is accident and emergency. | :17:16. | :17:19. | |
In England, 95% those waiting in A should be treated or assessed | :17:20. | :17:21. | |
Scotland did a bit better with a figure of 94.7% but Wales | :17:22. | :17:32. | |
and Northern Ireland were both below England and Scotland. | :17:33. | :17:34. | |
Christmas is coming and the NHS is getting even busier. | :17:35. | :17:43. | |
This hospital in Nottingham has made plans to cope with the winter rush - | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
extra beds have been provided, GPs will be brought into A to help | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
I think it's going to be a really tough period for the NHS. | :17:50. | :17:57. | |
I think there's going to be huge demand on our services. | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
I'm hopeful here that we have done some really good planning | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
in collaboration with social services and primary care | :18:07. | :18:13. | |
and the commissioners but I think it will be a challenge for us | :18:14. | :18:16. | |
Here in the hospital control room, the management of the flow | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
of patients is going on around the clock. | :18:21. | :18:22. | |
These screens show staff at any given time, how many beds | :18:23. | :18:24. | |
are being freed up, and how many are needed for new patients. | :18:25. | :18:27. | |
Right now, almost all the 900 beds on this site are being occupied. | :18:28. | :18:31. | |
Increasing numbers of elderly patients with complex conditions | :18:32. | :18:34. | |
Getting them out of hospital can be a challenge. | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
It often depends on social services organising care | :18:39. | :18:41. | |
and that is what they have done for Hilary, who is ready to go home. | :18:42. | :18:44. | |
I had lots of questions in the hospital to make sure | :18:45. | :18:48. | |
I was ready for coming home, early in the morning, | :18:49. | :18:52. | |
to make sure I could dress myself and undress and everything. | :18:53. | :18:55. | |
But delayed transfers from hospitals in England are at a record high, | :18:56. | :18:59. | |
that means fewer beds for new patients coming | :19:00. | :19:01. | |
By contrast, in Scotland, delayed transfers have fallen, | :19:02. | :19:05. | |
with schemes like this one in Glasgow playing a part. | :19:06. | :19:07. | |
Patients are looked after in a care centre, a halfway house | :19:08. | :19:10. | |
Most of them would prefer to go back home but they don't really realise | :19:11. | :19:20. | |
how much care they need in the community. | :19:21. | :19:21. | |
This gives them an opportunity to realise how much care they need. | :19:22. | :19:26. | |
In England, key performance targets were missed. | :19:27. | :19:29. | |
An NHS spokesman said staff were providing quality services | :19:30. | :19:31. | |
in the face of increasingly high levels of demand. | :19:32. | :19:34. | |
Within the last hour, senior cabinet ministers have been | :19:35. | :19:45. | |
discussing the vexed question of whether to build a third | :19:46. | :19:48. | |
That was the recommendation from an independent commission. | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
Let's speak to our Business Editor, Kamal Ahmed, who's at Heathrow. | :19:53. | :19:59. | |
This is something of a long-running saga, does it mean we will get a | :20:00. | :20:07. | |
decision? It has been 50 years since the last full length run weight was | :20:08. | :20:11. | |
given the go-ahead in the south-east of England, here at Heathrow | :20:12. | :20:15. | |
Airport. The subcommittee is meeting as we speak that will decide on | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
whether to build a third runway, also here at Heathrow. On that | :20:21. | :20:25. | |
committee there are some big heavyweight names that do seem to be | :20:26. | :20:30. | |
sympathetic to a third runway. They include George Osborne, the | :20:31. | :20:34. | |
Chancellor, Sajid Javid, the Business Secretary, and Patrick | :20:35. | :20:37. | |
McLoughlin, the Transport Secretary, that the person who chairs the | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
committee has concerns and that is one David Cameron. He is concerned | :20:44. | :20:48. | |
about the environmental and noise pollution, about the pledge he made | :20:49. | :20:54. | |
in 2009, no ifs and buts, no third runway, and he is concerned about | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
the London may roll elections next May when the Conservative candidate, | :21:00. | :21:05. | |
Zac Goldsmith, is wholly opposed to expanding Heathrow. I believe David | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
Cameron will put off their decision and demand and other environmental | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
audit and will be waiting until at least next summer before the | :21:15. | :21:16. | |
government decides. Thank you. For days now, delegates from nearly | :21:17. | :21:18. | |
200 countries have been negotiating a deal about how to to | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
tackle climate change. Meeting in Paris, they've been | :21:22. | :21:23. | |
trying to find agreement Our Science Editor, David Shukman, | :21:24. | :21:26. | |
looks at the carbon cost With lights blazing in cities around | :21:27. | :21:32. | |
the world, what does the summit Homes are one of many sources | :21:33. | :21:40. | |
of the carbon emissions released into the atmosphere that are blamed | :21:41. | :21:45. | |
for rising temperatures. If you add it up, the carbon | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
cost of households right across the country, you end up | :21:50. | :21:55. | |
with a total of nearly 140 million To put that in context, | :21:56. | :21:58. | |
it is about a quarter of all emissions produced | :21:59. | :22:02. | |
by the entire UK. Working out exactly | :22:03. | :22:04. | |
what is responsible is difficult and pretty contentious, | :22:05. | :22:06. | |
but here are some of the key things. One of the biggest factors | :22:07. | :22:09. | |
is the basic job of staying warm. Heating and hot water create | :22:10. | :22:13. | |
about 82 million tonnes Our thermal camera shows how much | :22:14. | :22:15. | |
energy can be wasted with heat Inside, boilers have become far more | :22:16. | :22:22. | |
efficient although a lot depends on the way that people actually | :22:23. | :22:29. | |
live in their homes. Over the years there has been | :22:30. | :22:36. | |
so much information, even at my work and things, | :22:37. | :22:38. | |
we are always conscious of not leaving lights on in | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
meeting rooms and things. I think, genuinely, personally | :22:42. | :22:44. | |
I think there has been a real change and people are more | :22:45. | :22:48. | |
conscious and aware. Next in scale is how we keep | :22:49. | :22:51. | |
the lights on at home. The electricity we use causes | :22:52. | :22:54. | |
about 39 million tonnes The appliances we depend on need far | :22:55. | :22:56. | |
less energy than they used The total of devices | :22:57. | :23:01. | |
in the average home is now 41, Then there is getting | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
around, the carbon cost That is about 1.6 tonnes | :23:07. | :23:17. | |
of greenhouse gas for each They do more miles per gallon | :23:18. | :23:21. | |
than they used to but more efficient diesels give off more nitrogen | :23:22. | :23:33. | |
dioxide, which adds to pollution. And flights are another | :23:34. | :23:39. | |
source of greenhouse gas. Just one return flight to New York | :23:40. | :23:41. | |
is the equivalent of a year's So how much difference | :23:42. | :23:44. | |
can one person make? You can save a bit of energy | :23:45. | :23:52. | |
by putting in energy efficient light bulbs and you can blow it in a week | :23:53. | :23:56. | |
by taking a holiday in the sun. Leisure, generally speaking | :23:57. | :24:02. | |
in households, is over a quarter of the carbon that we burn, | :24:03. | :24:05. | |
that we are responsible for. Ultimately, it is about personal | :24:06. | :24:08. | |
choice, and with carbon so important to our lives, fundamental change | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
is always going to be hard. More than 18 months ago fire | :24:13. | :24:14. | |
engulfed the Glasgow School of Art, regarded as one of the finest | :24:15. | :24:24. | |
buildings in the UK and the masterpiece | :24:25. | :24:26. | |
of Charles Rennie Macintosh. The building's centrepiece library | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
was left a burnt-out wreck and work is currently underway to rebuild it, | :24:32. | :24:33. | |
but now experts have decided it may be possible to reinstate some | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
of the original fittings. Scotland Correspondent Lorna Gordon | :24:38. | :24:39. | |
joins us from there now. It was a building known | :24:40. | :24:42. | |
for its contrasts of darkness and light, and at the heart of this | :24:43. | :24:46. | |
most dramatic of interiors, the library with its central cluster | :24:47. | :24:48. | |
of fittings illuminating When fire struck, it broke | :24:49. | :24:51. | |
into hundreds of different pieces. Now specialists are looking | :24:52. | :25:01. | |
at whether this masterpiece can be It may end up being the only | :25:02. | :25:04. | |
original part of the room It is a kind of jigsaw | :25:05. | :25:08. | |
puzzle of stuff. Even as we speak, we are discovering | :25:09. | :25:18. | |
how these pieces fit together and can be fitted together | :25:19. | :25:21. | |
for the restoration. The fire left Charles Rennie | :25:22. | :25:25. | |
Mackintosh's pivotal piece of architecture damaged but not | :25:26. | :25:27. | |
completely destroyed. The intention is to rebuild | :25:28. | :25:31. | |
the library back to this, The debris was a foot deep, | :25:32. | :25:34. | |
now cleared, but inevitably when this room is recreated, | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
it might not be quite the same I think they will spot | :25:40. | :25:42. | |
the difference because the building When it comes back, it will be | :25:43. | :25:47. | |
slightly more wood than that uniform And what of other artefacts | :25:48. | :25:55. | |
damaged by the flames? We are considering the option | :25:56. | :26:02. | |
of retaining one or two in this very blackened state because it does | :26:03. | :26:05. | |
help to tell the story of the fire. Clean, conserve, repair, | :26:06. | :26:08. | |
replace, reinstate. The challenge of bringing the Mac, | :26:09. | :26:17. | |
renowned for its architecture Hopefully a quieter night for | :26:18. | :26:19. | |
Glenridding. Absolutely. No real heavy rain but | :26:20. | :26:42. | |
we have some snow, this is a picture from the Highlands. You can make out | :26:43. | :26:48. | |
the tracks on the street. Thank you for sending that in. We have snow | :26:49. | :26:54. | |
showers coming into Scotland and it will stay quite chilly in the | :26:55. | :26:58. | |
northern half of the UK for the next few days, becoming cold at night. | :26:59. | :27:03. | |
This is the weather for the rest of the UK, a few showers but not that | :27:04. | :27:08. | |
persistent rain and dreadful weather we had in Cumbria last night. Mild | :27:09. | :27:13. | |
in the south, colder in the North with a few wintry showers in the | :27:14. | :27:16. | |
hills and tomorrow, the same theme will stop the northern two thirds of | :27:17. | :27:21. | |
the country a bit colder. Some fine weather also, Wales, the Midlands | :27:22. | :27:26. | |
and East Anglia will get some sunshine and a bit more cloudy on | :27:27. | :27:31. | |
the south coast with some rain. Friday night could be clear so good | :27:32. | :27:37. | |
night to spot some shooting stars. On Saturday morning, we are watching | :27:38. | :27:42. | |
for potentially wintry weather affecting the north-west, the | :27:43. | :27:47. | |
Pennines into Cumbria unfortunate for those flooded areas, there could | :27:48. | :27:51. | |
be some snow on the ground but it will be transient and clear quickly. | :27:52. | :27:56. | |
Heavy rain in northern Wales and across the Peak District. Saturday | :27:57. | :28:01. | |
night will be very mild in the south, 10 degrees, but in the | :28:02. | :28:05. | |
Highlands, first thing on Sunday morning, temperatures could be five, | :28:06. | :28:10. | |
maybe even a few degrees lower. Cold and frosty across the northern half | :28:11. | :28:16. | |
with some sunshine but still quite cloudy with damp weather across the | :28:17. | :28:21. | |
South. The story of the last few weeks, really. 12 degrees in | :28:22. | :28:25. | |
Plymouth but chilly in Aberdeen, around three degrees. | :28:26. | :28:28. | |
